The lindy slick jig is pretty popular here too, and they sucked me in too I bought a few

Good job guys! It's been fun reading along with you guys during the show. Hopefully I'll be able to find the time to get to syracuse for the NY show. Next year you should think of transmitting live from the show with skype or something with interviews from the sponsors asking questions from members in real time or show some of the demos. Publicity like that I'm sure would impress our sponsor sites and keep them coming back. Thanks again its' been fun.

jimmygunns · « **Reply #308 on:** Dec 06, 2009, 04:57 PM »

That's not a bad idea Jigger! That would be pretty cool. I'm hoping I can actually make it up there next year.

Irish Jigger · « **Reply #309 on:** Dec 06, 2009, 05:17 PM »

Hey the more sponsors we get the better right? Others may see whats going on and want to hop on the bandwagon. We are the guys who buy thier products and that type of direct advertising is priceless. It was just an idea that came to me while I was wishing I was there.

that thing looks uncomfortable!

juniatabassman · « **Reply #314 on:** Dec 06, 2009, 08:28 PM »

Yeah that looks way to uncomfortable to fish in you could give it to. Wishful thinking.... Tight lines all

Strike Master had some good deals on clothing. I bought a jacket with thier logo on it for $20. I purchased one of thier fleece zippered sweatshirts for only $5, bad part was they only had size large. I still should of bought all of them up and sold them on eBay.
Whats the deal with Thorne Bros.? They had one of those snap in blade covers for a strikemaster auger and the guy told me it was $42?

I put that sucker down quick and went back to the strikemaster both a purchased it for $25. A buddy of mine got a good deal on St. Croix legend rods. Two for $80 and two free hats from the manufacturer's booth when he showed them that he bought them. Christen Brothers brandy booth was a disapointment! We entered to win a free pop-up and they let us have a free shot of brandy, but when we went back she remembered us and said that you already had your shot. She said, only one shot per person....

How 'bout $40K?
I looked in one of the two that was there, the price sheet on the dashboard said $39,200.

Skipper-Two Fish Tommy,
Gentlemen thank you for the Photographs and reports these past few days. I have my plans made to attend the Syracuse,NY. show so this thread was a teaser for me.
Ditto on the Ice Castle photos they are some sweeeet looking trailers,may you get many years of service from yours and make many good memories in it.
Also thanks for promoting this website looking at the membership number at the bottom of home page,it appears we gained over a hundred new members in the last two days.

Steve

Thanks for pointing that out Steve, I was wondering about that. Skipper and Tommy did a great job for us! I have to be honest, I was a little depressed knowing I couldn't be there with them, it's a great show and it would be fun to meet some of the members face to face. I look forward to watching the Syracuse show from afar as well.

Mike

The membership numbers are going up rapidly. I see you are down in North Carolina do you ever get enough ice to fish through in the Smokey Mountains . I realize you may have relocated from a colder area and still travel north to ice fish.
